You are taught to be gay just like you are taught to be hetero. You don't learn that all on your own.
Someone helped you along the way, that was already chose to be gay.
Public education teaches the kids today.
Ugh, this is why you are on ignore for me. You aren't taught to be asexual, heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual, you just realize it. For some this happens early in life, for others it is much later on.
I have told this before,but it bears repeating whenever someone spouts such nonsense.
I have a friend who was adopted. He was the result of an affair. His father got divorced because of that, remarried, and in total had at least 3 kids.2 boys, 1 girl. All 3 of these were raised in different homes by different parents, 1 in another state entirely. None knew each other until adulthood when they finally met. Yet all 3 are homosexual. The one thing they share is a father that my friend never met, and who was out of the girls life very early because of the affair and the mother moving out of state.
I know another family in which 2 out of 3 men siblings are gay. All the girls though are heterosexual. The men are all over 80 now, and were raised in a rural part of a red state by a conservative family, and went to school there in , what, the 40's and 50's ?
Im sure the gay agenda in public schools was big in the rural red states in the 40's
Its not public education.
Its called genetics.
Sounds like daddy was a pedophile and taught them... Just saying.
So at what percentage do you think minorities should be represented on TV?
The black population is 45 million and hispanics number over 50 million now so they are basically 1 out of every 3 Americans according to the census.
I don't think I've ever seen a Hispanic family in a commercial.
As I said before, I don't have cable now and haven't had it for years. So I don't know if this has changed.
It' interesting to see how marketing is used and ask yourself WHY and HOW it is being used.
Sounds like YOU are making a big deal about it. I've been reading your posts (a lot of them) You do care!
You are misinterpreting the reasons why I am posting, and what aspect I do care about it. Go re-read the posts if you actually care to understand what I think.
I think its more to do with the racism, intolerance and hatred that Trump has been preaching and this has an overall effect on gullible Americans who are often too clueless to think for themselves, as well as stirring up feelings of racism and hatred that are often left buried, but now free to be openly displayed.
No... I saw a BIG reverse on empathy/understanding for LGBT when the Obama Admin sent that "Dear Colleague" letter to every K-12 public school in the country. Many people drew the line at that. 77% of those age 30+ (old enough to have school age kids) disagree with allowing male students to change and shower with female students in school multiple occupancy locker/shower rooms by simply saying they "feel like a girl" that day, no proof required whatsoever.
Oddly, the "Dear Colleague" letter cites Title IX as its authority, but LGBT isn't a protected class under Federal Civil Rights Law. So the letter's legal claims aren't even valid. /SMH

Yep. People want to behave in a voluntary manner.
ORDER them to think/feel/speak so their thoughts can be controlled through authoritarian maneuvers, laws, coercion, and name calling/insults? They push back.
Don't make the bakers the victims. They broke local anti-discrimination laws.
BIG problem with the state's case... Constitutional Rights and the Federal Civil Rights Act (religion is a protected class, LGBT is not) supersede local/state laws: US Constitution's Supremacy Clause, Article VI.
